(When I used to temp in Chicago, I tried never to act surprised or taken aback by anything asked of me, except the men I called "the horrible lawyer twins." Inside I was screaming, crying and gasping for air, but outside, I was not reactive. And after work, I either bought roses or pop-tarts to console myself. I'd say, hubby owes you pie and cake.)

Ohh, so pretty saria! That is exactly how I wish I could wear my hair pulled back, but it looks awful on me that way.

TRBL, I'd fly in with ninjarooski if I could and give you a hand!

I figured the other flowers weren't working. Jeepy thought they were skulls!

I'm going to work the polls in May! I've got to be there at the crack of freakin' dawn, and stay all day, but I'm serving my country, so I'm glad. It's good to do one's civic duty.

Yay for you for working the polls. I'm finally fully retired after 20+ years of heavy involvment in politics so I know those long days. It's tiring but fun.

In my defense, I only got them because I was already paying for shipping for something else I need to unclog the tub and that I couldn't find at Home Depot.

I can't believe how tiny they both are, especially the River Cottage book. It looks like a novel. Funny that British books seem to be around this size.

Interesting info from Stevens about the theory that gluten intolerance is so much more prevalent now because the mass production of bread led to shorter fermentation time which makes the wheat harder to digest.
